Jumpstart your income, your life, your success
Darren Hardy
This book was recommended to me by a fellow Marine who went on to build a successful financial services business after his service in the Marine Corps. If you have served, or have had any close exposure to those who have served (Marines or any military branch), then you are aware of the armed forces' tendencies to train, train more, and then keep training until they are called to act. As active members and veterans of the armed forces, we know the importance of having a plan, taking action, developing habits, and becoming so consistent in their training that when called to act… their actions can be performed without thought and from a subconscious level.
This book, although not based on military experiences, provides anyone willing to take control of their personal success the tools and techniques to do so. Further, this book helps to stress the importance of developing positive habits with real world examples and powerful analogies.
The Compound Effect is not just another book about forming positive habits though. It stresses the power we have in our choices. It illustrates the power of momentum and the cost of losing it. It goes even further and challenges the reader to go beyond their current limits… to push through that “wall”.
